French Open 2025: Coco Gauff Overcomes Bouzkova to Reach 4th Round for 5th Straight Year
• Hot Trendy News
PARIS—Coco Gauff’s march through the 2025 French Open is gathering momentum. The No. 2 seed powered into the Round of 16 without dropping a set, dispatching Marie Bouzkova 6-2, 6-3 on Court Philippe-Chatrier to secure a place in Week 2 at Roland Garros.
Dominant first week
• Through three matches, Gauff has broken serve in more than 55 % of return games, the highest clip among remaining women’s contenders at the clay-court major.
• She has struck 78 winners against just 46 unforced errors, showcasing a balanced blend of aggression and consistency.
• The American is bidding to reach her third straight quarter-final in Paris, having finished runner-up in 2022 and semi-finalist in 2024.
Round of 16 showdown vs Ekaterina Alexandrova
Gauff next meets Russia’s Ekaterina Alexandrova, who upset No. 15 seed Liudmila Samsonova to book her maiden appearance in the Roland Garros second week. The pair’s head-to-head is level at 1-1, but Gauff won their only clay encounter in straight sets last season.
Keys to the match
1. First-serve percentage: Gauff has landed 68 % of first serves so far; anything above 65 % neutralises Alexandrova’s flat returns.
2. Backhand crosscourt: Expect Gauff to drag the Russian off court and open space for forehand winners.
3. Handled nerves: At 21, Gauff owns a 36-9 career record on clay, while Alexandrova is 20-21. Experience could decide the tight points.
How to watch
The Round of 16 clash is scheduled for Tuesday, 2 June, first up on Philippe-Chatrier at 11 a.m. local (5 a.m. ET). U.S. viewers can watch on TNT and truTV; streaming options include Sling and Max.
What’s at stake
A win would set up a potential all-American quarter-final with fourth seed Jessica Pegula, keeping alive Gauff’s quest for a second Grand Slam crown after her breakthrough at the 2023 US Open. With her aggressive returns clicking and confidence soaring, the teenager-turned-contender looks ready to make another deep Parisian run—and tennis fans worldwide are tuning in to see if she can turn promise into a Coupe Suzanne-Lenglen.
